Every solution that involve rewarding warpoints more favours older and better players over newbies and poorer players. It increases the already huge gap and will destroy the game when no one stays because they get stomped constantly and can't earn warpoints |

It increases the already huge gap and will destroy the game when no one stays because they get stomped constantly and can't earn warpoints If you are not earning war points then that means are you are already getting stomped, so I don't see the difference. Whether the game rewards you 1,000 skill points or 5,000 skill points, if you weren't doing well in the game you're just as likely to quit. Plus if new players can't earn war points properly then this is a balance issue that CCP needs to fix with proper tutorials, matchmaking, and overall power tweaks, not something they should sweep under the rug of consolation prizes.
And what does your experience with CCP tell you with regards to them improving the lot of new players? 400 warpoints then kicked out the academy? They have no brains, you know this. At least now newbies are earning 3k sp compared to veteran 6k. Under your system they would be lucky to get half that. |

I'm pretty sure that more newbies abandon the game because they get curbstomped by protobears constantly than abandon it because there's some afkers in the mcc. |

So you're using "CCP is terrible at developing a New Player Experience" as your excuse to condone a system where AFKing is encouraged? Yeah CCP may not have a clue what new players need, and a 400 war point battle academy is perfect proof, but that doesn't mean they should just give up on the NPE and say, "Well, at least you're here." Also I thought the 168,000 passive skill points you earn a week was supposed to be there to help those who aren't as efficient in battle.
I tell you what, once CCP develop a decent NPE and progression system, I'll get fully behind the end of in-game time-based sp gain.
And if everyone earns the 168k sp per week, it's not really a leg up for newbies, is it? |

Except the AFKers are part of why many matches are pub stomps.
Law of averages, there'll be as many afkers on the other team. |
